Don’t come here for the food. It was very bland and the oatmeal was very water downed. But do come if you want a cozy atmosphere and a nice coffee or drink with a friend to sit down with.

Dots Café is one of those rare spots that makes you want to come back every single day (which at this point I basically do). The coffee is great (shoutout to the seasonal flavors), the food is thoughtful and consistently delicious, and the whole place has a welcoming energy that’s hard to find. Favorites of mine are the breakfast burrito, chicken sandwich, and the pastries, but honestly almost everything here hits the mark. The staff make it even better, as they're kind, upbeat, and always on point, and the owner brings a personal touch that makes the café feel like a true neighborhood gem. If you’re looking for a place that combines quality with atmosphere, this is it.

It’s a nice and spacious place to work from but the temperature inside was set to 80 degrees and it was impossible to work here after a while. The staff refused to reduce the temperature when I asked as if they don’t want you to be here a long time.

Lovely coffee shop with a great vibe. The salmon toast is delicious - fresh, flavorful, and plated beautifully. A perfect match with their coffee. Definitely worth coming back for.

Came here on a Sunday morning, ordered a latte and the BEC. Food was very mid small portion for the the cost, nothing extraordinary about it and costed $9. Felt like I could have made a better BEC at home. First bite tasted very salty. Latte was also very mid, was good but not wow. Loved the atmosphere seating outside though.

I visit NYC for work and always struggle to find good working coffee places. This place was great! Cool ambiance, strong WiFi, tons of seating space and great coffee

The museum is the best place to take a break. I’m satisfied with the coffee, but the sandwich is a little salty. Personally, it would have been better if Tomado had been included. Above all, the staff were kind. Clean toilet. Notebook availability. There are several outlets.

Amazing spot for working or chilling. They offer coffee, tea, and beer for beverages. They also offer plated and high quality grab-n-go food options. Free wifi. The most seating options I've seen yet at a coffee shop. Great vibes. Friendly staff. Really like this spot.

Got a matcha latte, well made. Everything bagel was great, felt homemade.
It is a spacious place with few brunch options and seating area / also seating for regular work chill in cafes.
A great new spot overall.

EDITED REVIEW: I was invited back to try a version of the rose strawberry mocha with less of the rose syrup, and it’s much better. Their iced honey lavender latte is 10/10 no adjustments needed. Floral without being overwhelming, sweet without being cloying. The breakfast grain bowl is great. The people here are so friendly.
